Hmmm. That *should* be called. 'find-file-name-handler' should match the
path and return a result.
With XEmacs 20.4 I get:
(expand-file-name "/r:melancholia:.vm")
"/r@scp:daniel@melancholia:/home/daniel/.vm"
Something is not right in there at a higher level than RCP then. All I
can think of is that for some strange reason the variable
'rcp-file-name-handler-alist' has the wrong value on your system or
something.

'find-file-name-handler' should match the rcp handler and pass the
request to 'rcp-file-name-handler' which should in turn call
'rcp-handle-expand-file-name'.
